It is most definitely disputable that it destroy social cohesion. The US was cohesive after WWII, by that point we already had a LOT of non-white people. Also black Americans have been here since the start.

Wrong.

  1950 Census
  ---------------------------------------------
  Race           Percentage of Total Population
  ---------------------------------------------
  White          89.5%
  Black          10.0%
  Other Races    0.5%
Keep in mind the black population was essentially segregated at this point.
